Linus kiadta a 7.0-s Linux kernel második prepatchét:
Bejelentés:
So I'm not super-happy with how big this is, but I'm hoping it's just
the random timing noise we see every once in a while where I just
happen to get more pull requests one week, only for the next week to
then be quieter.
Because I don't think we've had a bigger rc2 (counting non-merge
commits) in quite a while. It might be because of pent-up work with
6.19 having dragged out that extra week. I guess we'll see how the
release progresses.
rc2 is also a bit unusual in how the bulk of the changes aren't in
drivers. Sure, drivers are still a quarter of the diff, but it's
_only_ a quarter. Normally it's at least half. Filesystems (mostly smb
client, but we've got xfs and erofs there too) are another 25%.
The rest (half the diff, for people keeping score at home) is a more
mixed bunch, with tests (mostly bpf), core kernel, bpf, arch updates
and networking code leading the charge.
Anyway, somewhat unusual stats for rc2, but I _think_ it's just
random. Please go test,
Linus
